“When we have extinguished the constitutional autonomous bodies, once the legislative process is concluded and it is current law, resources will be reallocated. We have to review how we can reduce the budget of autonomous entities or different agencies and reallocate them to other priorities,” said Morena coordinator of the Chamber of Deputies, Ricardo Monreal.
From his social networks, the Morenista commented from his X account that the resource allocation process for next year “is complicated” due to the lack of resources to “meet so many legitimate demands of the population.”
The seven autonomous bodies that Morena seeks to disappear are the National Institute of Transparency Access to Public Information and Protection of Personal Data (INAI), the Federal Telecommunications Institute (IFT), the Federal Economic Competition Commission (COFECE), the National Commission of Hydrocarbons (CNH), the Energy Regulatory Commission (CRE), the National Council for the Evaluation of Social Development Policy (Coneval) and the National Commission for the Continuous Improvement of Education (Mejoredu).
The reforms to eliminate these bodies have already been approved by the Chamber of Deputies, so the Senate and state congresses need to discuss and vote on them, since they are changes to the Constitution.
Together they requested 4,422.2 million pesos (mp) for 2025 (386.6 million pesos less than what they received for 2024). That is, legislators will have to reduce more than 10,000 million pesos to other agencies to reach 15 or 20,000 million pesos.
On November 15, the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit (SHCP) delivered the PPEF 2025, in which a total expenditure of 9.2 billion pesos is projected, of which the programmable spending of the public sector is 6.5 billion pesos, which represents a real reduction of 3.6% against the 2024 Federation Expenditure Budget.
The PPEF 2025 must be endorsed no later than December 31.
